Re: FT 817 and Palm III interface, found a ICOM program

Hi Geoff,

Is there a way to make the software low vision and blind friendly? Does the
palm have sound capability or the ability to generate speech? With CAT
software for the FT-817 operating in real time it could make the FT-817
usable to blind and low vision hams. If you can have these features in the
program which can be turned on for blind and low vision users that would be
great. That way it would meet our needs without being a bother for normally
sighted hams who don't need it.

Hello All,

I'm Geoff Wicks, the author of the Palm/PCR1000 PCRPilot program. As
coincidence would have it I purchased an FT-817 at our local Hamfest a
week
ago (love the radio!) and have been contemplating a Palm program over the
last few days.

Any input and ideas on a control program would be appreciated. My aim
when
designing the PCRPilot was to put as much information on the screen
without
having to go through a series of menus to get at commonly used controls.
This is the same philosophy that I intend using for the FT817 program.

Regards,

Geoff Wicks VK4KGL

hello group
ok here is a example of a ICOM rig controled by a Palm OS system. I
have posted the writer of the program in the hopes that he would know
how or where to get such a program produced.



even if all you could do would be to program the memories, it would
be light years ahead of the imbedded menue and itty bitty button
method.
